MyBB WBB in Italy
Rockets are in Bologna, and played the 1st of 3 games against the "Bologna All-Stars". Rockets won 76-61

Reported scoring leaders were:
Beacham 16
Black & Rokkanen 10 each
Santucci 8

Not that it means anything at this point, but reportedly Whitaker started along side Beacham in the front court, with the expected group of Santucci, Black & Rokkanen.

“Hi, I’m Sophia and I’m majoring in bio-medical engineering”.

Interviewer: “What’s your favorite color?”

I might have gone with something like “What are your career goals” or something.

That would be great. This team will struggle against top MAC teams (Miami, OU) unless a couple of new players are significant contributors. Can't have half of the team sitting on the end of the bench game after game.

right, and while it is great the local tv station sent staff to italy to follow the team, the product is a bit amateur. what's with the blaring bad background music during the interview. i'm trying to hear her words. why is sports the only form of media where they play bad generic background music when people start to talk.

Wonder if we will again see the quick reverse spin move to the basket Naama Shafir successfully used with incredible effectiveness.

Strack has posted a bunch of new videos, including brief segments with Mali Morgan-Elliott and Quinesha Lockett. Too many to post here, but can be found in Strack's twitter https://twitter.com/JordanStrack

But, here's a little longer interview with Santucci:

Thanks for the link northcoastRocket.

Game clips and coach’s interview post game are informative. The meet the freshmen is short on substance; at least we can put names to faces.

From the pictures posted of game 2, it looked like neither Johnson nor Curry dressed. Hopefully nothing to be worried about.

More highlights from game 3. The Rockets got to practice a lot of layups.
